I've tried the stardock themes freeware version windowblinds, found it to look cool but lack functionality, probably the pay for view version is better. I have read other geek sites that recommend stardock and some of their programs. I run a desktop clock and used to use object dock, there was always some conflict or other with windows. Became to time consuming to work out all the issues.

Which theme in windowblinds are you using? A couple of them including the Vista lookalike were pretty sharp.

Mainly that it covers up Microsoft's famous Start button with the Windows logo on it. Stardock takes away from Microsoft's keeping their brand visible on the computer.
